Foreword I am delighted to provide the Foreword for the first County Durham Strategic Cycling and Walking Delivery Plan. This is an important document to help us create a better cycling and walking county over the next ten years. We want to encourage positive investment and development in Durham and active travel plays a key part in this vision. We want to make cycling and walking part of Durham’s culture and help more people to enjoy them as part of their everyday lives. We want Durham to make the most of the positive contribution they can make to regenerating our County. “I commend this document and whole-heartedly encourage you to embrace it so that you too can benefit.” County Councillor Carl Marshall, Portfolio Holder for Economic Regeneration Cycling has risen up the agenda, through sporting achievements, a desire for more active lifestyles and the need to save money and we must make the most of this increased interest. In contrast, the decline in walking is of great concern for our health and the environment and in particular for our younger generation. We must support measures which tackle the heart of the issue and reverse this decline. Making cycling and walking more convenient will encourage greater participation, which in turn will help to normalise them as everyday modes of transport. We must support this plan which promotes tolerance and understanding between all highway users. “Much progress has already been made to set better standards for cycling and walking and this Delivery Plan will allow us to build on that.” County Councillor Peter Brookes, Durham County Council’s Cycling Champion Evidence Base 3 2.

Introduction Welcome to the first Strategic Cycling and Walking Delivery Plan for County Durham. The Delivery Plan is our long-term, local approach to deliver on the Government’s ambitions to create a cycling and walking nation as established in the DfTs Cycling and Walking Investment Strategy (2016). It focusses on enabling cycling and walking for everyday journeys to reduce the reliance on car travel and create confident, active and healthy communities. The Government’s targets to reach by 2025 are: • Double cycling from 0.8 billion to 1.6 billion stages1 • Increase walking to 300 stages per person per year • Reduce the number of cyclists killed or injured each year • Increase the percentage of school children (5-10yrs) that walk to school from 49% to 55%. By working towards these targets, the benefits will be seen in positive social, environmental, economic and health outcomes. A combination of physical and behavioural measures are required to enable the positive change to a County which embraces active travel. We aim to provide the right conditions to make cycling and walking for short journeys, or as part of a longer journey, the natural choice. The Draft Plan was available for a six week public consultation on the DCC website. It was prepared through consultation with a wide range of partners through the creation of two task and finish working groups. The groups have provided expertise from a wealth of backgrounds including health, sport, physical activity, transport, tourism, planning, spatial policy and sustainability - many members are cyclists and walkers themselves. They previously helped review the 2012-2015 Cycling Strategy and provided productive and positive support for the development of this Delivery Plan. The Plan focusses on active travel and does not cover mountain biking, elite, competitive and velodrome cycling and guided rides and walks. 1 stages = unit of travel when there is a change in the mode of transport i.e. a journey cycling to a railway station to catch the train to work is one cycle stage. This allows cycling and walking to be included and counted in journeys when they are not the main mode. Evidence Base 5 Recreational use of the networks and guided rides and walks are only included where participation may lead to utility trips i.e. self-guided cycling and walking, Cycle Durham Back on Your Bike rides and Walk Durham health walks. We recognise the important contribution cycling and walking make to leisure and tourism and support will continue for funding bids and schemes to construct new or improve existing recreational/tourism routes which have a clear evidence base, cost-benefit and which can prove ongoing maintenance is secured. These are not however, listed or included in the plan as the focus is on active travel. Equestrian use of the network is not specifically covered. However, where the off- road networks are shared with equestrians (i.e. public bridleways, multi-user routes and Railway Paths) any improvements carried out through the implementation of the plan will be considerate of the needs of horseriders. 6 County Durham Strategic Cycling and Walking Delivery Plan 2019 - 2029 4. Policy Context Cycling and walking permeates many themes including transport, planning, health, economic regeneration, sport, leisure and tourism. The diagram below shows how they link to other plans and strategies and how this delivery plan can help contribute to fulfilling the aims of these documents. Environment Green Infrastructure Framework, Carbon Reduction Strategy, Air Transport Community Quality Management Plan, Sustainable Landscape partnership Local Transport Plan, Community Strategy, management plans Durham City Sustainable Transport Delivery Plan, Area Action Plans, Travel Plans, Rights of Way Neighbourhood, Parish Improvement Plan, & Locality Plans NECA Transport Manifesto Health and Planning Well-being National Planning Health and Well-being and Policy Framework, Strategy, County Durham Plan, Joint Strategic Needs County Durham Infrastructure Assessment Development Plan Cycling Strategy Recreation Economic and Leisure Regeneration Active Durham: Regeneration Framework for Statement, Physical Activity in NELEP Economic County Durham Plan Children, Young People and Families Plan Tourism Equality, Children & Durham Tourism Young People’s Strategy, Management Plan Safe Durham Partnership Plan Evidence Base 7 “40,000 premature deaths each year in the UK are attributable to air pollution.” Living Streets At a national level the profile for cycling and walking has increased significantly with the enactment of the Active Travel Bill for Wales in 2013, significant investment in Cycle Super Highways and Santander Cycles (aka Boris Bikes) in London, TfL’s street toolkit and most recently DfT’s Cycling and Walking Investment Strategy (2016) adding strength to the political support for local authorities to address the needs for safer and more convenient cycling and walking routes. Active travel is relevant to many key strategies and plans, and will be well represented in the North East Transport Plan for the North East Combined Authority (NECA)*. This plan is part of the broader strategic framework which sets the scene for regeneration and economic prosperity in the County. The overarching plans and strategies within this framework (shown on previous page) influence the strategic direction of this document.

  • Cycling UK – Written Evidence (NPS0129)
    Cycling UK – Written evidence (NPS0129) Cycling UK was founded in 1878 and has over 70,000 members and supporters. Our central mission is to make cycling a safe, accessible, enjoyable and ‘normal’ activity for people of all ages and abilities. Our interests cover cycling both as a form of day-to-day transport and as a leisure activity, which can deliver health, economic, environmental, safety and quality of life benefits, both for individuals and society. Summary of key points Cycling is almost unique, in being a form of activity that can be either a competitive sport, a non-competitive form of informal recreation, or a way to make day-to-day journeys (e.g. to work, education shopping etc). It is a highly accessible, cost-effective and time-efficient way for people of all ages, abilities or economic circumstances to embed moderate physical activity into their day-to-day lives. Being both a means of transport and an outdoor activity, the benefits of cycling go well beyond those of improved mental and physical health and well-being. They also include reducing car-dependence (and hence congestion, road casualties and the emission of greenhouse gases, pollution and noise); strengthening rural and tourist economies; and enhancing people’s connection with nature (and thus their willingness to protect it, as well as the health benefits associated with ‘green’ environments). These benefits are of huge economic value and span many different policy areas. Boosting cycling therefore requires partnership working across several government departments and sectors (e.g. transport, planning, health, recreation and sport, environment and rural affairs, education, business and climate change), at both local and national levels.

    Comments for NP/S/0718/0606 (ref: NP/S/0718/0606) Name: Kieran Foster Address: Cycling UK, Railton Road, Guildford, Surrey Postcode: GU2 9JX Type of comment: Support Comments: Ref: Application Number: NP/S/0718/0606 Sir, I am writing regards planning application NP/S/0718/0606 - which seeks planning permission for the development of a series of permissive paths and a family mountain bike trail at Langsett Reservoir. I am the national Off-Road Cycling Advisor for Cycling UK, a national cycling charity with 65,000 members. Formerly known at CTC or the 'Cyclists Touring Club’, our organisation is recognised as a formal consultee on rights of way issues in existing regulations and DEFRA guidance. I wish to offer our organisations wholehearted support for the proposals. We believe that the addition of a family friendly off-road cycling facility in this area would be highly beneficial to off-road cycling and countryside recreation in the area. in 2016, Cycling UK organised a large national survey into the behaviour and habits of the off-road cycling community, with 11,482 responses, we discovered that: The vast majority of respondents said that off-road cycling is "very important" (58%) or "fairly important" (32%) for their physical health An even higher number (66%) saying it is very important for their mental health and well-being. 61% said off-road cycling is their primary form of exercise, while 12% of respondents said they have a disability or chronic health condition. Other popular activities undertaken by our respondents were rambling and low-level hiking (56%), hill-walking or mountaineering (46%) and dog-walking (31%).

    Wheelrights the Swansea Bay cycle campaign group Newsletter No. 50 Winter 2019/20 www.wheelrights.org.uk Where are the diversion signs? Wheelrights members have been proactive recently in drawing the Council’s attention to blocked cycle routes like this one just up river from the Liberty Stadium. There was no diversion sign at this, the north end, although there was one at the other end. While there is usually a good reason for the closure, diversions are not signed for cyclists as they are for motorists or even pedestrians. In fact I don’t think I’ve seen a cycle diversion sign in these parts. (Just “cyclists NCR 43 dismount”!) We just have to assume that pedestrian diversions also apply to cyclists. STOP PRESS! Go to p. 8. This issue While (as usual) there are some worthy articles in this issue I am concerned that there is too little feedback from the membership; also that it would be good to have articles every now and then which entertain or challenge rather than simply inform.

    CIT0175 Written evidence submitted by Cycling UK CORONAVIRUS: IMPLICATIONS FOR TRANSPORT INTRODUCTION 1. Cycling UK was founded in 1878 and has 72,000 members and supporters. Historically known as ‘CTC’ or the ‘Cyclists’ Touring Club’, Cycling UK’s central charitable mission is to make cycling a safe, accessible, enjoyable and ‘normal’ activity for people of all ages and abilities. Our interests cover cycling both as a form of day-to-day transport and as a leisure activity, which can deliver health, economic, environmental, safety and quality of life benefits, both for individuals and society. Cycling UK is a member of the Walking and Cycling Alliance (along with the Bicycle Association, British Cycling, Living Streets, Ramblers and Sustrans) as well as the Healthy Air Campaign. 2. Cycling UK has been pleased to provide oral as well as written evidence to a number of Transport Committee inquiries in recent years, notably its inquiry on Active Travel in 2019, whose recommendations we strongly supported. Our written submission to that inquiry1 provides an overview of the economic, environmental, health and quality-of-life arguments for investing in cycling, hence we do not repeat them here. 3. Since the start of the Covid-19 crisis, Cycling UK has been urging UK Governments to support cycling, not only as a form of healthy exercise during lockdown, but also as a means for key workers to continue making essential journeys and, more recently, as a way of recovering from the Covid-19 crisis in a way that would leave us better placed to address the crises of traffic congestion, air pollution, road danger, inactivity-related ill- health and ultimately the climate crisis, while avoiding a car-led recovery.

Having a good cycling policy for your workplace gives you the confidence as the employer that your staff are aware of what is expected of them whilst cycling on work business; and it gives staff the confidence that you support their travel choice. It can be daunting to write a cycling policy from scratch. In this document, we highlight what is important and the different options for what you might want to include.
